I have a multi-choice question with the last option being "Other (please specify)." The text box appears below this text. Is it possible to have the text entry box beside the text instead of below?

Use below code:

jQuery("#"+this.questionId+" .TextEntryBox").each(function() {
var tb = jQuery(this);
tb.css({"float":"none","background-color":"white","width":"50%"});
tb.prev("label").css("display","block").append(" ").append(tb);
});

@rondev Thanks for the solution you provided. It worked well for both single and multiple answer multiple choice question types. I found it better than other Qualtrics solutions, especially with its easy-to-use text box feature.  One notable advantage is that when you select the text box, the background remains white, making it easy for users to type in.
